"Brokers Excuse" ads given by Brokers

After so many days of non stopped browsing through the sites like Magicbricks.com,99 acres.com and Bangaloreproperty.com, I have finally found a home. Well I will explain how continuous and thorough my browsing was.

A 2BHK in Bellandur, which I would be sharing with Raka will be my place to live for the next at least one year or so. So with this the first and undoubtedly the most difficult step towards settling down again in Bangalore is successfully taken. The house reminds me of the owner of the house. No. Dont take it wrong. He is a HE.Ok, first of all let me tell you why and how did I get that house. I got the house because the house owner wanted to give it to me. Yup without even knowing me, just because I was the first person to call him up since he had put the house up for rent. This proves that how vigorously and how frequently I was checking those sites for updates. I called him within an hour of him posting the ad. It was a Sunday afternoon and he was in Pune at that time but he made sure that we meet on Tuesday eve when he comes back from Pune as now he will give the house to me only. Since he was so much interested in giving it to me although because of superstition, I went there to meet him and have a look at the house. House is definitely good, well ventilated and has an airtel broadband connection. What else could I ask for a rent of 10K (inclusive of maintenance) in Bangalore. But as they say with great luck comes great responsibility. The owner has given me a big responsibility of an aquarium which he has in his house and he wants me to take utmost care of it once I move to that place .Because the fishes there in the aquarium are so dear to him as he feels they are the source of all the wealth which he has created in last couple of years or so. Well no doubt abt that as he is in early thirties and owns a flat in bangalore at such a small age.

Searching for a house was a nice experience in itself. Talking to so many people and trying to convince them that although I am a bachelor I would be a good tenant.
The most surprising thing which came to me during this whole exercise of house searching was ads which clearly said "Brokers Excuse" which were given by brokers itself. I called up the guy but came to know that he himself is a broker and when I asked him why he has put "Brokers Excuse" thing in the ad. He told me that he has put it there to avoid other brokers calling him up for that property. Looks like these broker people have formed a cabal and there is a tacit understanding among them. And they all very well understand this "CODE OF CONDUCT".
